Parse your URL

Do you need to analyze an URL? Do you want to check if all the query string's parameters you need are present and have the value you're expecting?

Just paste the URL in the field below and click the "Parse" button. We'll take care of the rest.

About an URL

A URL (Uniform Resource Locator) is a reference or address used to access resources on the internet. It provides the means to locate and retrieve a specific resource, such as a webpage, image, video, or document, on a network (typically the internet). A URL consists of several components, each with a specific purpose. Here's a breakdown of these components:

  1. Scheme (Protocol): This part specifies the protocol used to access the resource. Common protocols include:

    • http (HyperText Transfer Protocol)
    • https (HTTP Secure, a secure version of HTTP)
    • ftp (File Transfer Protocol)
    • mailto (for email addresses)

    Example: https://

  2. Username and password (Optional): This part indicates which username and password (separated by colon) use to access a protected resource. It is separated by the Host part by a @.

    Example: username:password@

  3. Host (Domain Name): This part identifies the server hosting the resource. It can be a domain name (e.g., example.com) or an IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.1).

    Example: www.example.com

  4. Port (Optional): This part specifies the port number on the server for the connection. If omitted, the default port for the protocol is used (e.g., 80 for HTTP, 443 for HTTPS).

    Example: :80

  5. Path: This part specifies the specific location or file on the server. It often represents a directory structure.

    Example: /path/to/resource

  6. Query (Optional): This part provides additional parameters for the resource, often used for dynamic content. It starts with a question mark ? and includes key-value pairs separated by &.

    Example: ?key1=value1&key2=value2

  7. Fragment (Optional): This part refers to a specific section within a resource, such as an anchor in an HTML document. It starts with a hash #.

    Example: #section1

Putting it all together, a typical URL might look like this: https://username:password@www.example.com:80/path/to/resource?key1=value1&key2=value2#section1

In this example:

  • https is the scheme.
  • username:password are the username and it's password.
  • www.example.com is the host.
  • :80 is the port.
  • /path/to/resource is the path.
  • ?key1=value1&key2=value2 is the query.
  • #section1 is the fragment.

URLs are essential for navigating the web, allowing users and applications to locate and access resources efficiently.
